Yeah, the army has changed a lot in the past few decades, and not always for the better. Seen some really strange things go down, including some that frankly disgusted me. While in we had a SGT play air guitar with a M4 and sprayed a room full of joes- killing one and crippling another. Busted to Spec4, made sergeant again a year later. A year later, a Sergeant goes into a club, gets carded like everyone else, gets a number of a girl he meets. 6 months later, and nothing more than phone contact, gets booted because her fake id didn't say she was 17, upon chaptering out with a General OTH (I was his escort), he asked the brigade commander what made him so different, and with a straight face, the commander said, "He was a good christian, he obviously didn't mean any harm, your not." (The soldier was jewish, and when he cried foul.. (and I did) the reply from the EO guys was a "So what, its true")
